International Voice: Syrian National Council

Syrian National Council: George Sabra, president of the Western-backed Syrian National Council, said he wants Canada to be a stronger international voice against Syrian President Bashar Assad, according to CTV. "We need to see real movement now to protect Syrian people --not only statements, we need action," Sabra said Saturday, prior to a town-hall style meeting in Montreal and MONTREAL -- The head of Syria's main opposition group is planning to press Canada for more help when he meets this week with Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird. The Syrian government's purported use of chemical weapons in recent days should give the international community an even greater sense of urgency, he said. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
